🔥 Built for Balanced and Bold Sound
The JL Audio C1-690 is engineered to impress. It features a mineral-filled polypropylene woofer cone paired with a rubber surround. This combo ensures strong midbass, minimal distortion, and long-term durability.

🚘 Designed for Real-World Driving
JL Audio speakers are tested to handle the heat, humidity, and rough roads of daily driving. These aren’t just built to sound good—they’re built to last.
The rubber surround helps absorb vibrations and road bumps. Meanwhile, the polypropylene woofer cone stays stable through heat cycles and moisture. Whether you drive a sedan, SUV, or truck, these speakers fit right in.
🌞 Add Window Tint for More Than Just Style
Extreme heat inside your car can affect speaker performance and longevity. Prolonged sun exposure damages surround and dries out plastics.
We recommend car window tinting to protect your interior and audio system. It helps reduce cabin heat, prevent UV damage, and improve privacy.
A cooler interior also helps keep your new speakers working at their best.
